Boone's Creek-Almost Home (Book) - 9/24/2008 6:36:29 AMI was recently at our cabin in Potter Co, PA. After doing the necessary things; opening up the cabin, cleaning windows & washing curtains, I sat down with your book "Boone's Creek-Almost Home." Needless to say, nothing else got done until I finished it! It is not normal for me to sit & read a book the whole way through, but I could not put it down. It was fantastic. I'm looking forward to reading more of your work.

The Shorter Version (Book) - 7/26/2008 6:20:42 PMTook it to the grocery store with me to wait on Friend Goldie. Read some of the writes, amazingly lifelike, true and funny. She writes it like it is in real life, amazingly the kids do cause lots of tension in the home, but she handles it great. So does her husband get in troulbe lots of time but explains his way out of it nicely.
It is so rich in truth, concerns, problem solving, a must for all those who like good stories about families.

Boone's Creek-Almost Home (Book) - 7/16/2008 7:00:54 PMWould love to read Boone's Creek, sounds so exciting a story. I am always reading when restless and throughout the day and night. Love to read any kind of books.

Boone's Creek-Almost Home (Book) - 5/16/2008 2:01:42 PMI recently read Boone's Creek-Almost Home. It kept my interest and I couldn't put it down. It is every well written and I can't wait to read the next one.

Boone's Creek-Almost Home (Book) - 4/25/2008 6:28:23 AM Having the honor and pleasure of knowing the author and having come "face to face" with her real life "Nikko", I enjoyed reading Boone's Creek. I look forward to many more books and the author's postive personality reflected in her work.

Where Is God (Short Story) - 3/7/2014 6:00:08 PMBeautiful and so profound, touching soul and spirit. What I learned from Job is this: Songs when things are good is Praise, but songs when things are bad is Worship. Job's response to tragedy was worship.

I'M NOT SAYING GOOD-BYE (Short Story) - 3/7/2014 5:57:33 PMVery touching and inspiring write Kathryn, we will all go at one time or the other, and it will always be a wonderful Homecoming, our first day with our Savior. Cynthia

INSECURE WRITERS SUPPORT GROUP (Short Story) - 4/4/2013 4:41:03 PMI don't know how to explain it--I love the world of thoughts, images, poetry, romance, passion. I love to create on a page the thoughts running around in my head. It is therapy and at times comforts my soul -I believe it is a talent that God has given to me to write -tho i know some poems He would not approve of
i used to think poets and writers belonged in another century and then when my Mother died i found the craft of writing my thoughts out in poetry helped me to heal

I Thought You Were a Christian (Short Story) - 3/3/2013 12:26:06 PMKathrin, though the woman at the well story might've been mixed up with the woman who was caught in the act, it's still a good tale! Nicely finished up with the Lord's prayer too, supporting forgivenees, Well done! Bleessing to you!

I Thought You Were a Christian (Short Story) - 2/26/2013 1:42:32 PMYes, great poetic thoughts. I had a hard time forgiving too. Then I remembered it was not me that was important. Hurt people hurt others. I just was in the way.
May peace be with you, love pour into your heart and blessings flow over you from the Lords' bounty.
John Michael

9/11 Memorial (Article) - 9/12/2013 10:16:39 AMA brief, but well-written and nicely focused description of the kind of morning that millions of us around the world experienced 12 years ago via television. My own 9/11 story, "A Day To Remember", was similar in its approach, but somewhat lengthier, for unavoidable reasons of geography -- Ms. Neff-Perry was right there in NYC, whereas I started the day in Peru and ended it in Panama.

A Tribute to My Dad (Poetry) - 2/19/2015 2:59:43 PMThis is a wonderful tribute to your dad. My dad has terminal cancer and will go to be with The Lord soon. It's messages like this that help all of us cope and understand we're not alone. Death is a part of life but never an ending. I believe in heaven. I know soon we will all be together again.
God Bless
Kathy

A Tribute to My Dad (Poetry) - 2/13/2015 4:57:24 PMBeautiful tribute to a dear Dad...I am so sorry ... I believe he is on another adventure now...

A Tribute to My Dad (Poetry) - 2/6/2015 2:20:07 PMI'm so sorry. This is a beautiful tribute to your dad.
Imagine his light growing even brighter, as it surely will.

A Tribute to My Dad (Poetry) - 2/6/2015 9:12:17 AMI hope that most of his 98 years were highly active. People that live that long generally are very healthy and active. Like my great uncle who lived to 98. His only battles were with fires because he was a fire chief for the town.

Waiting At His Feet (Poetry) - 5/25/2012 3:05:45 PMOne Precious Poem Kathy! Yes, one day you will be with them in Heaven. Amen!

Waiting At His Feet (Poetry) - 3/24/2012 11:40:00 AMKathryn,
This is exceptional and from the heart. I too, have lost my Mom and I miss her so so much. I will see her again one day and I wait for that day. She died at 39 yrs. old, leaving 8 kids behind. She was hit by a car. God bless you and comfort us both.
Blessings to you,

Waiting At His Feet (Poetry) - 3/17/2012 3:40:03 PMThis is beautiful. I can relate to these tender thoughts so well having lost both mom and dad in the past half year.

Setting of the Sun (Poetry) - 1/24/2012 4:32:46 AM...NOT JUST ANOTHER DAY...BUT HAVING SPENT ANOTHER DAY WITH OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST IS A BLESSING THAT MAKES ONE GLAD TO BE ALIVE AND IN 'HIS' CONSTANT CARE. BEAUTIFUL! THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

THE PASTORS WIFE (Poetry) - 12/9/2011 6:50:11 AMSome persons take the approach that certain things needn't be spoken, that they're "understood."
But I think it's important to know that if there's something in your heart, it should be shared. Psychiatrists refer to this as "stroking." I think it's common sense.
"The Pastor's Wife" is a timely and important message. And thank you, Kathryn, for sharing the message with us all.
Richard

Setting of the Sun (Poetry) - 12/8/2011 7:38:11 AMI just read the Setting of the Sun. These are words worth repeating:
"I love you more than anything
You are my Savior and my King
Iím singing hallelujah, as I hear the
Church bells ring.."
But then the ending lines are so grand...
"Thanks for being with me
In everything I do
Iíll try another day
To be more like you.
Iíll praise Your name forever
Until my day has come
When once again we meet
At the setting of the sun."
This poem deserves many many more reviews!
You will be rewarded someway as you gather in the pews
Christmas blessings,
John Michael Domino

THE PASTORS WIFE (Poetry) - 12/8/2011 7:30:36 AMDear Kathryn,
The Pastor's Wife is a very heartfelt poem. I liked these lines very much:
"Weíve always known
Your servants heart
Thatís why weíve loved you
From the very start."
It's words such as this that help make relationships grow.
Very smart!
I wrote a poem for my wife on our 25th wedding anniversary.
She says that she will cherish it forever so it was well worth the effort. Check it out on Authors Den.
God Bless you and your family as we celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
John Michael Domino

THE PASTORS WIFE (Poetry) - 12/6/2011 1:13:26 PMVery nice, she should be pleased with this!

LYING IN A MANGER (Poetry) - 12/6/2010 7:09:44 AMA good poem about the birth of Christ.
But have you wondered what it would be like in a stable.
Maybe the manger was the cattle drinking or eating trough.
It must have stunk like a farmyard only worse and possibly not even swept out or cleaned. Hmmm. bit like my flat. lol

HIDDEN IN MY HEART (Poetry) - 12/1/2010 8:21:43 AMI do this too, Kathryn. Although I tend to tackle the longer psalms and so forth, so end up frustrated. Probably the shorter the better, right?!

Be ready to see the King of the Kings.
Be ready...
Be careful...
Be holy...
Be brave... to stand with the Son of Man...

Jars of Clay (Poetry) - 1/21/2009 4:53:30 PMHe does mold us as he wishes and we were born in his image. I know you are already a good helper and considerate person and are willing t help wherever and to whomever needs you. being molded into something like he wants is letting him have his will in your life and I know he molded you from an uniquely individual mold already.
